A special meeting is scheduled for 8:30 p.m. Thursday.

Northampton is searching for a new township supervisor following the resignation of board member Larry Weinstein.

A special meeting is scheduled for 8:30 p.m. Thursday in the township building at 55 Township Road. Just one item will be on the meeting's agenda, said township manager Robert Pellegrino. The board will vote to accept the resignation of Weinstein, a Republican and five-year member of the board.

Weinstein’s letter to the township said he was leaving office for "personal reasons," and this news organization was unsuccessful in reaching him for comment after calls to his home and cellphone Monday.

The Northampton supervisors have 30 days to appoint a replacement for Weinstein, Pellegrino said. The township will advertise online and on its public access channel for resumes, the manager said. Weinstein’s replacement would serve for the remainder of his term, which runs through December 2019.

First elected in 2013, Weinstein had served as liaison to local fire departments and police officers and on the township's veterans advisory commission. He previously served on the township board of auditors and works as an attorney with the Ardmore-based law firm of Silver & Silver.
